Reading should be fun!

You've all seen subscription boxes.. they come in all shapes and sizes and you can pretty much find one for anything you are looking for .. from baby toys to pet toys ;)

Recently I was brought together with a brand new company, BookRoo! They offer a subscription box that delivers amazing books. And I love books!!

We have books all over the house. Bubba's bookcase is full, there's a pile in the master bedroom, another in the living room and Riley has her own in her room! Oh don't forget the ones kept in the car!

But can you ever have too many books? Nahhh!

Since I've been in touch with BookRoo, I've received 2 boxes (I'm just really behind on sharing month 1). So I will share both boxes with you here... plus a special code for all of you to try out Bookroo at a discount (but you have to read to the bottom)!! You won't be disappointed ;)

JULY Box

Bubba loves to get boxes!! We've done Citrus Lane many times, and Bluum! He loved getting the books, especially since they were individually wrapped. We had a lot of fun unwrapping them together!!

I just have to say the paper they use to wrap is such awesome quality, hard to explain but it doesn't tear easily... in a good way! :)

AUGUST Box

As you can see, August is a whole nother story!! Half the time Bubba was more interested in those awesome cookies you see... made by my mother in law, for my birthday!!! (yes they were amazing!)

Again, I really loved the wrapping, and the variety of patterns!
Bubba is really intent and determined to get that paper off!!

We have definitely enjoyed reading "Little Cub", "A Book of Sleep"  "Little White Rabbit" from our first box, as well as "Let's Count", "Hernando Fandango" & "The Crayon Box that Talked" from our 2nd box!!

I would absolutely recommend BookRoo, to my family, friends and readers!!! Make sure you use this link to get $4 OFF your 1st box!!!

Bookroo gets an awesome High Five from Bubba!

THANK YOU BOOKROO!!! We totally look forward to our future boxes!!!

** This review is based on my sole opinion, and I was not paid to share. I did receive a discount on my first box, and the opportunity to share a discount with my readers. **

Me - in a nutshell

Truth be told, I live in a fantasy world. Where I have time to Do-It-All!! World's Best Mom & Wife, #1 Employee (even if I am only 1 out of 2!), Blogger extraordinaire, and the best at whatever business I choose that month ;) Which is Perfectly Posh. Stay tuned for a post on that!!!


I put way too much on my plate, I acknowledge it, then pile it on some more! No, not all of it gets done - heck most of it doesn't get done.. yet I don't change. One day I'll finish that To-Do list that grows my the day (who am I kidding, by the minute!)

Even while I write this, I need to pause and go soothe a whining Toddler who should have fallen asleep by now. And, I'll tell you, normally I would have been distracted and gone onto something else, and this would be sitting in the drafts for months, like everything else I write!! But I want to get it out. For a while a lot of my posts may sound like gibberish but that's the only way I will get them out, until I get in the groove LOL


I was just distracted for a good half hour because I saw a sale -- $19.99 for Vera Bradley Hipster Crossbody! OMG! Surprisingly, I didn't get one - the pattern I wanted was sold out and I realized I don't really need one!

Anyhow - I think I'm done for now. I have Other posts to get back to!

See you an sooner rather than later!

Are you still with me?

The following has been a draft since 4/20/15 - and I start to think ...
Does anyone even really read this? Maybe if I think they don't I can say anything I like. There's plenty of stuff I don't want to talk about and posting doesn't mean I want to. I am just getting it off my chest and out of my head.

With that being said .. ;)

It has been far too long - I have been enjoying my time since the baby was born but it is time I say hello to all of you again!

I hope you're all still here and look forward to what I've been thinking about since my last post!!

First of all - I found this draft in my list of posts. It was started on 12/9/13, titled "Am I cut out for this??" and the only text inside the draft was:

It has been over 2 weeks since my last post ... I am sorry. Sometime I wonder if I can make it in this blogging world!

Well, I think that answers that question!! 2 weeks seemed like an eternity... now let's talk about a whole year between posts.. and then now 2 months since my last post!

I feel more out of control and unorganized in the last 5-6 months than I did when I first became a brand new mom. I actually read a book over the last month, and added about 5+ more to my list..  I haven't read since well before The Baby was born.

There never seems to be enough time in the day, for anything at all.

I want to be a better Friend, Sister, Daughter, Wife, Mother and Christian. Yet I find it all very hard.

I am disappointed in myself for things I have left unfinished. 

In the last year I have become a:

-Jamberry Independent consultant

-Buskins Leggings Affiliate (now Sparckily)
-Young Living essential oils

I love these companies and the products, but when am I going to accept that I am not a "salesperson"?? ;) Yes, we need more income - who doesn't? but this is not the answer, for us. But what is?

Yes, this blog post is ALL over the place - and I hope it makes a little bit of sense, but I really just wanted to get it out there, out of my brain, into the internet world ... like I should have so many months ago.

I love you all for reading it .. I hope you went down this far!

Maybe I can start writing more about stuff that makes sense... I need to figure out what it is that I want to write about and focus on that.

I am posting this before I don't (AGAIN) and I need to add another header about how long it sits as a draft. Thank you again for being here - I hope to see you more often in the near future! ;)

How much does my Toddler weigh?

Yes! You read that correctly.

It's that time already, can you believe it? I can hardly believe it myself!

Last year, we held a little contest to guess how big The Baby was going to be when born .... this year, let's guess how big The Toddler is!! What makes this even harder is I have not had/given an update on his weight, so it'll be like pulling it out of your .... 

oh nevermind ;)

I will give you a few hints though...

If you don't remember, he was born 9lbs 4oz & 21" long (on 2/20/15 @ 8am).

After heading home, he was 8lbs 3oz... so while I was breastfeeding we were instructed to supplement and get his weight back up (since he lost more than 10%)

At 3 weeks, he was back up to 9lbs 13oz and 22.5" long

At his 4 month check-up, The Baby was a whopping 20lbs! and at 9 months he was 28lbs!

So now.... what does my Toddler weigh at 12 months!!??

We have his 1year check-up on Friday 2/20 at 11am... afterwards (on our drive to Disney!!), I will come back here and the guess that is the CLOSEST will win!!!

Since it has taken me forever (no surprise there) to get this set up, I will extend the entry time! Entry cut off will be at 1:59pm on Friday 2/20/15

What do you win?! 
Well it may be news to some of you but over that last year I joined 2 businesses:

Jamberry Nails &

Buskins Leggings!! 

I absolutely love both of them and think they are absolutely ah-mazing!

So the winner will get their CHOICE of a sheet of Jamberry Nail wraps or pair of Leggings, or Gift card to either company!

A Whole Year

It's true.. 1 year ago today I posted one of my last 2 blog posts - How Sad!?

Honestly, this year has just flown by, my little baby (who didn't seem so little at the time) is going to be 1 in just less than 3 weeks!
(which brings me to my last blog post - Guess the Baby's weight - in about 2 weeks I will be writing a follow-up called - Guess the Toddler's weight!! - watch for it!!)


I can't promise anything but I would love to get back to blogging and sharing with all of you! I can never seem to find the time for blogging -- among many other things!

So much has changed over the last year - I've started writing a couple posts and they just sit as drafts, after I get this and my next 2 follow up posts up I will look them over again and get my thoughts together to share!


Time to attempt a nap before our fun-filled day! I'll be back soon for a follow-up to I won!! (Part 1 of 3) - please stay tuned! ;)
